CALM RAIN & THUNDER • 10H High Quality Binaural Recording • Neumann KU100

The sound of mild-to-heavy rain and distant thunder, recorded under a porch, in Belgium, on July 5th, 2021.
This recording uses one of the most expensive binaural microphone available, the Neumann KU-100. Can you hear the difference? Do you want more of these particular recordings? Please tell us in the comment section below.
Like all binaural recordings, headphones are recommended to enjoy an immersive audio experience. This recording will sound excellent on great speakers too, only lacking the 3D audio effect.

best ambient sound in youtube history.

This is oh so wonderful. By far, the best thunderstorm audio I've heard. With headphones, for a moment I wondered if I needed to close my window as not to let in the rain! Thank you for sharing this with us. I think I'll be sleeping soundly tonight. ❤

[@muto2590]

Thank you for this video. I can't sleep at night because of all the stress in my life at the moment. Depression has been keeping me restless and I've been feeling extreme loneliness. I pop this video on and even as the storm in this video rages, it's silent in my head. The KU100 is truly a spectacular machine c;

[@Galacseas]

I hope you're doing better now!

[@knuttheo1668]

Finally, good quality rain sound!

[@carleec1823]

This is the BEST rain/thunderstorm audio I have ever heard. It sounds so real that I forgot I had headphones on for a sec. thank you so much for this.

[@RicardoFelixStudio]

Great job! Please, bring more recordings with this Neumann KU100!

[@myNoiseDotNet]

That's the plan!

[@naturerelaxation1847]

So calm! quiet and relaxing!

[@thoreroseup]

I've used this so many countless times over the nights these past 2 years. It has helped me tremendously and it is amazing how they sound going through my Reference Speakers/setup.... Thank you so much...!! Please make more

[@n1lev]

I agree that the quality is definitely discernible. Absolutely stunning. I had to google this Neumann KU100. Very expensive equipment. I hope that there will be a lot more sounds taken with it. I've supported you via your website and will continue to do it!

[@musicmaker4him901]

Best thunderstorm sound on KZbin!

[@Dmoriarty1993]

Love your work, Stephane. Thank you! I would honestly avoid adverts during the video though unless mine was a fluke. People always credit content makers who do that.

[@myNoiseDotNet]

Ads are not supposed to run in the middle of the video. I would hate that too! Will check the settings again.

[@Dmoriarty1993]

@@myNoiseDotNet Marvelous. Keep up the good work!

[@scp234]

blends nicely with Prelude.

more more more rain pls

i love this so much omg

[@IAMCMJ11]

Love this!😬😬

[@morpheuswanderer3524]

The sound is impressive.

[@ayusharya2521]

Ahhhh... 😍

[@RobertKissel]

I like this one already. I'm afraid that the fine nuances of sound quality may not be apparent to me, given the limitations of my own equipment, and the likelihood of the sound track being compressed anyway for transmission, with some loss of detail . . . I really need to set up some good little speakers near my bed, so that, when there are troublesome disturbances I can use some of your "sonic blankets" to mask intrusions. It's uncanny how well you understand how to soothe people like me who have a disposition to be overly sensitive to intrusive noises.

[@Boarderathome]

Im in bed with very good speakers beside it’s incredible!! But I could sleep better if there would be less thunder in the audio just the rain would be nice. I hope there is more of this to come ❤

[@yoloers]

i play this every time i workout at home to cover my grunting and heaving sounds lmao

[@bumblebee9337]

Money well-spent :)

[@nono-uk7ru]

I really love the moment at 2:32:10

[@RockAnimations]

I kinda liked 4:35:12 more tbh

[@n1lev]

Why are these sounds not uploaded on Spotify where you have a channel too?

[@myNoiseDotNet]

Because it is difficult to release tracks of that length, as albums. But I am investigating the Podcast format...

[@glasp1]

can you put link to donwload the files in FLAC please?

[@Gadottinho]

I'd say it's not really necessary, youtube now uses opus, which should have enough sound quality

[@zebius4157]

Could I download the raw source file from you and use it to make a subliminal bundle? Mind you, I wouldn't release it, it would purely be for personal use.

[@myNoiseDotNet]

Personal use sounds fair use to me.

[@zebius4157]

@@myNoiseDotNet okay then, do you still have the raw recording of this on hand?

[@vlcthefish]

@@myNoiseDotNet Curious what device did you record this on to for the raw?

[@myNoiseDotNet]

[@vlcthefish]

@@myNoiseDotNet I'd be curious on any improvements if you used a Sound Devices MixPre-3 II. Have you every watched the video with the guy testing a bunch of different recorders called "What's the best recorder for 3D Binaural Audio? " I thought the Sound Devices were really impressive for my ears.

This still isnt worth 8k
